Psalms 141: ³ Take control of what I say, O Lord, and guard my lips.

I am doing a 7 day devotional on gossip.. this was today's scripture...

I think daily this is a prayer I should have... not only because of saying negative things.. but also saying irrelevant words.. yesterdays scripture was that we will all have to answer for every idle word we speak....

that is pretty big to me.. as I tend to talk sometimes just to hear myself.. I am getting better and better at it.. but still... not where I need to be.. I think that if we were able to control our mouths.. we will have come a long long way on this walk with Christ... my witness would be greatly improved if I didn't speak some of the things that I speak.. I think our words are a responsiblity we take far too lightly...

take control of what I say Lord and guard my lips.. every single day... amen.amen.amen.
